Great post and breakdown as usual man, I was totally stoked when I saw this because I don't keep up with the new releases but I am an apple user. I actually just bought the new generation iMac pro 15 with the touch bar and it is pretty rad. It's fast but just like you said in the post cooling is definitely an issue with this thing, when I'm editing photos it gets hot to the point that I think it might be dangerous sometimes. And unfortunately mine has been doing that clicking thing as well (some weird issue with the new ones, they make random noises). Anyhow, I'm back on Steemit! Hahaha, great read as usual, keep up the good work :)

So great to hear from you again. Be careful with the clicking it could mean a hard drive is about to go - make sure you have everything backed up.
Thanks for the advice man, I do have everything important backed up. We are in the middle of an intercontinental move right now so I'm just doing the best I can with that hahaha. I know clicking hard drives are danger, but does that apply to SSD's too, do they start to click if they have problems? Cause this thing just has a solid state.
No SSDs don't click as there are no moving parts - another source of clicking is fans- could be that one of the fans has come loose and is creating the sound. There aren't really any other parts that could click.
